Subject:	Re: FLASH: dumb new user type question about param quality=high

Laura,

What you show here has some things missing in the EMBED portion, notably the
quality setting. What you have should work fine for IE. If you used Aftershock
to generate it, you must have deleted some of the code. The EMBED portion is
what controls how Netscape views the movie.
